It's an unsettled week ahead with the days growing colder, and a more widespread dusting of snow in parts of Scotland.

Tuesday begins with fog, dense in places, spreading once again across parts of the Midlands and East Anglia. Visibility may drop to around 100 metres for some, extra care will be needed for the morning commute.

Later on, rain pushes into south-west England as a front associated with low pressure north-west of Portugal becomes more influential to out weather.

Towards the evening, this spreads further into central Ireland, Wales, and the English Midlands but dry elsewhere with some sun for Scotland and northern England.

From midweek, high pressure begins to build between Greenland and Iceland. Fronts remain dominant with rain in southern England but generally dry and fine elsewhere. By Wednesday evening showers may turn wintry with snow over higher ground in northern to north-west Scotland.

By the end of the week, a colder northwesterly airflow brings drier, brighter weather. Though still more unsettled in the far north and north-east of the UK with snow falling at altitude. Morning frost will be become more prevalent with an early taste of winter.

Temperatures could fall as low as -5°C overnight in more rural spots as the week ends on a chilly note.
